French leave (old-fashioned, humorous) a period when you are absent from work without asking for permission. Is Ray really ill again, or is he just taking French leave? See also: leave a French letter (informal, old-fashioned) a thin rubber covering that a man can wear on his penis during sex to stop a woman becoming pregnant or to protect him or his partner against infectious diseases. In those days, French letters were the only form of contraceptive we had. See also: letter Pardon my French! (British, humorous) something that you say which means you are sorry because you have said an impolite word. The silly sod never turned up, pardon my French.
